Texas Longhorns will try to flip 5-star Oregon Edge commit during official visit to Austin
Texas Longhorns will try to flip 5-star Oregon Edge commit during official visit to Austin
Texas hosted edge Richard Wesley for an unofficial visit at the end of March. He ended up committing to Oregon in May. However, his official visits for the summer were announced this week.
The Longhorns will host Wesley on June 20. This is squeezed in between visits to Oregon (June 6) and Ohio State (August 30). He's yet to set a date for Texas A&M.
On3's industry rankings have Wesley as one of the top players in the nation. He's a five-star prospect who is the No. 25 recruit and the No. 4 edge. The 6-foot-5, 250-pounder is also the No. 5 prospect out of California.
Wesley wasn't extended an offer by Texas until January. With that being said, they will have to pick up their efforts and fast if they want to flip Wesley from Oregon or even compete with some of the other suitors.
It's been back-to-back super productive seasons for Wesley. He put up 50 tackles, 11.5 tackles for loss, and 9.5 sacks in 2023. Wesley amassed 44 tackles, 16 tackles for loss, nine sacks, and three forced fumbles.
